I had THREE tuxedo cats and now only TWO… the house feels empty but so much calmer… I miss her but I think I made the right decision.

all alone again…

Last Week- 

• Sunday – Headed to the gym first thing and then off to the lake…

Depending on next weekend’s weather, this could be our last boat outing of the season…

cool but sunny and I read a whole book!!

• Monday – Since I had to go to the office, I did my run at UAlbany afterwards.

Holy Cow!! What wind!!! (and an achy lower back.)

• Tuesday – I started the day at the gym and then a walk after work with former co-workers.

• Wednesday – Live teaching today and so that meant Starbucks and a lot of standing…

don’t you try to have your drink match the scenery?

After work was the 4th meeting of the STEM group.  I got there a little to add more steps to my day.

boy, my legs wee tired but we’re up to 5 min. running!

• Thursday – Live teaching day 2 and in addition to Starbucks,

orange not pumpkin…

I got my run done after work.

my friend is injured so I had to run solo. but at least the weather was perfect…

• Friday- Live teaching day 3… no fitness activities!

Instead of mah jongg, I attended an ARE-sponsored event:

CEO of Atlantic magazine, cancer survivor and an amazing runner…

Glad I went, it was so enjoyable and we got a free copy of the book…

• Saturday – Long Run and Brunch.

Really not that long since my 15k isn’t scheduled until Nov. 8. I had planned on 6 miles but feeling under the weather, I decided to go at it alone and quit after 3 miles.

having a nasty cold and starting too late.. Too bad since the weather was great.

I rushed home to meet a friend to go on a road trip the MA (Great Barrington and Lenox) for consignment shopping and  lunch.

• Sunday –  Gym and maybe  even a few more miles.  The weather doesn’t look good for boating… the season may be over until next May 😦

• Monday – DAY OFF (holiday), Long run (since I skipped it on Saturday.)
